she’s green
Minneapolis band she’s green describe themselves as “moss music”. Inspired as much by J.R.R. Tolkien and Hayao Miyazaki as by Slowdive and the Cocteau Twins, the band — consisting of Liam Armstrong, Zofia Smith, Raines Lucas, Kevin Seebeck and Teddy Nordvold — aim to create their own musical and visual world defined by dreamy fantasy, emotional openness and sonic depth. In 2023 she’s green released their debut EP, Wisteria, which included the viral hit “Mandy,” and in 2025 they released the follow-up EP, Chrysalis. It builds on the shimmering shoegaze and dream-pop of Wisteria, with ever more irresistible melodies and deeper songcraft. “We wanted to expand the scope of what we did with the first EP, and see how far we could push either side of the music — whether it’s harsh and jarring or it’s inviting and warm,” Armstrong says. And as they win over fans everywhere they go with their authentic, loving approach to their sound, it’s clear that this huge year for she’s green is only the beginning.
Spite House
Spite House is a Montreal-based post-hardcore band blending emotionally charged songwriting with the urgency and melody of ’90s post-hardcore and emo.
Formed in 2020, the band gained early attention with their self-titled debut on New Morality Zine, which led to extensive touring across Canada, the United States, and Europe. Known for intense and cathartic live performances, Spite House has toured with acts such as Single Mothers and The Dirty Nil, and shared stages with artists including Fiddlehead, Angel Du$t, Glitterer, Militarie Gun, and Scowl. The band has also appeared at festivals such as Outbreak Fest (UK) and Ieperfest (Belgium).
In 2025, Spite House signed to Pure Noise Records to release their sophomore album Desertion, which received strong critical attention and was named among BrooklynVegan’s Top 50 Punk Albums of the Year. In 2026, the band returned to Europe supporting Militarie Gun, toured the west coast for the first time supporting Slow Crush, and completed their first full US tour supporting Belmont. This fall, Spite House heads back out on the road for a full US run supporting SPY.
